STIHL & the American Tree Farm System: Partners in Caring for Nature
STIHL is proud to support the American Tree Farm System® (ATFS) and its more than 90,000 independent owners in their mission to promote the growing of renewable forest resources while protecting environmental benefits and increasing public understanding of all benefits of productive forestry.
As part of our exclusive partnership with the ATFS, STIHL is the presenting sponsor of the ATFS Outstanding Tree Farmer of the Year award, which aims to promote forest management as well as recognize outstanding tree farmers and the foresters who work with them.
The industry award focuses public attention on models of good forestry, while encouraging landowners to manage their lands more effectively by showing what the winners have accomplished. Award winners often become successful advocates, positively influencing legislation that affects private forest landowners.
As an industry leader, STIHL believes it is our duty to set the example in sustainability and continue to invest in innovative technologies, programs and partnerships as part of our ongoing commitment to socially responsible environmental stewardship. STIHL and the American Tree Farm System® – partners in caring for nature and the common good.
